Challenge, Week 3

Week 2 Recap:
I swam four days this week! All of them were 45 minutes or more, of varying intensity.
I wrote all of my food down, but mostly belatedly. I'll need to be more on top of that this week.
I rode my bike to PT on Thursday morning! Woo!
I lifted in the gym two days, so I fulfilled Lift Heavy Things!

Week 3:
Keep up the swimming! Swimming 6 days a week is hard with my work schedule, and of course it's about to get even harder to work around work...
Write food down right away. I've got three books now: two for work to keep track of me (diet, PT) and my 6-week challenge journal. At the very least, update the Record Book daily.
Ride my bike somewhere.
I'm going to keep Lift Heavy Things as my Primal application for this week. I'm partially doing Move Frequently at a Slow Pace with swimming. I'm going to keep working on applying Primal Blueprint Laws.

New/changing factors: My hip injury seems to finally be healing! I hope that I won't need another two weeks of light duty. I start physical therapy on the 28th, which is my last day of light duty. I'm wondering what they'll do for me. I've been okay at icing my hip.
My work schedule is changing... again! It's now 3 days on/3 days off, 12-hour shifts. This means swimming will take some more planning, because the shift is from 3 am to 3 pm. (No, it doesn't make sense... that's the military way of life.) The pool closes at 330 pm MWF, so I definitely need to plan and commit myself to my schedule. It starts on Wednesday, so I'll work Saturday and Sunday... boo.

Okay, that about wraps it up. See you all next week!

P.S. I started the Scouts challenge... and then forgot about it. Better next week!
